Chapter Seventy-Seven
Feng Hailong thrashed incessantly in bed.
His eyes were tightly shut. Tossing and turning, he scread in terror on the bed, yet no sound erged.
Xiaoshan knew that his spirit was entangled by a ghost.
After a bout of struggle, Feng Hailong’s breath weakened, his face turned ashen, and only then did Wang Feng drift out of his body.
Xiaoshan asked, "What’s going on?"
"It was him," Wang Feng said angrily. "He confessed everything in his sleep. I said it was him who took the urgent order from the provincial city back then, all to lure out of the city."
"Enough, I understand," Xiaoshan nodded indifferently.
He patted Feng Hailong’s body.
Feng Hailong imdiately opened his eyes, but it seed he had awakened from a nightmare—his entire body was drenched with cold sweat.
Upon awakening and seeing the room, he breathed a sigh of relief and exclaid, "It was just a dream."
However, his eyes soon narrowed because there was a person standing at the head of the bed.
He abruptly sat up and demanded, "Who are you?"
Xiaoshan gave a slight smile and said, "Feng Hailong, is it not?"
Feng Hailong’s eyes narrowed, and he suddenly rolled towards the edge of the bed, and shouted, "Co..."
He had barely uttered a syllable when Xiaoshan pointed at his throat, silencing the rest of the sound. Feng Hailong opened and closed his mouth in terror, but no sound ca from his throat.
Xiaoshan smiled and said, "Feng Hailong, I’m not the one looking for you."
After speaking, he took out a bottle of liquid and wiped it over Feng Hailong’s eyes. Feng Hailong instinctively shut his eyes from the irritation, but when he opened them again, his face was stricken with terror.
Because in front of him, the ghost of Wang Feng was looking at him with a fierce and nacing face.
He hadn’t expected everything from the dream to beco reality.
Wang Feng had truly co for him.
"Feng Hailong, how have I ever wronged you? Back then, when you were down and out, burdened with high-interest debt, you ran to Xinyuan County to seek refuge with . I took you in, gave you shares in the company—haven’t I treated you well enough? You still sought to ruin my family and ," Wang Feng scread shrilly, reaching out to choke Feng Hailong’s neck.
Feng Hailong’s breathing grew labored, his eyes rolling back, his tongue sticking out.
"Alright, Wang Feng, don’t kill him," Xiaoshan said.
Upon Xiaoshan’s intervention, Wang Feng then retracted his hand.
Feng Hailong, having escaped death, gasped for air. At that mont, Xiaoshan pointed at him, restoring his ability to speak.
Feng Hailong, now terrified out of his wits and seeing the sinister and terrorizing apparition of Wang Feng, started to kowtow repeatedly, pleading, "Brother Feng, Brother Feng, please spare . I was forced into this. It was Zhao Jun who approached , wanting to wrest control of your company from you. I had no choice. If I’d refused, they would have killed my entire family."
"Zhao Jun?" The ghostly face of Wang Feng contorted unpleasantly.
"Who is Zhao Jun?" Xiaoshan inquired.
"Zhao Jun, also known as Black Wolf, is a wealthy businessman in Xinyuan County with extensive dealings. He once sought to buy shares of our company as well, but I didn’t agree. At the ti, our company’s new product was a hot seller, earning millions in profit each year. I couldn’t bear to part with the shares," Wang Feng explained.
"Yes, yes, Brother Feng, Zhao Jun is ruthless and rciless. Brother Feng, I too want to live; I have a son," Feng Hailong said.
Wang Feng, seeing Feng Hailong plead like this, fell silent.
The two were old classmates after all, and their relationship had been very solid back in the day.
Xiaoshan noticed that Feng Hailong’s eyes flickered and his heartbeat was erratic as he spoke and he sneered, "So it was really Zhao Jun who forced you, and not you who actively contacted Zhao Jun?"
"Xiaoshan, what do you an?" Wang Feng urgently asked.
"His pupils dilated and his heartbeat quickened as he spoke; these are clear signs of lying," Xiaoshan explained.
Enraged, Wang Feng exclaid, "Fine, Feng Hailong, you dare to lie to to this mont! I’m going to kill your son right now."
A chill swept through the room as Wang Feng, with blood-red eyes, was about to rush out.
"No, no, please, Feng, I was wrong, I was wrong," Feng Hailong cried out in terror: "I admit it was greed for the company’s profits that got to . I’ve been with the company for over ten years, yet I only own ten percent of the shares, while you all have eighty percent. I was green with envy. I promised Zhao Jun I’d give him half of the company’s shares if he helped , and I would help him manage the company."
"Ten percent, and you still find that too little? The company was founded by ; all the investnt was mine. I gave you ten percent and even that’s not enough for you? You could make over a million in dividends a year. Feng Hailong, without , you would have been chopped up by loan sharks a long ti ago," Wang Feng said, so angry he nearly vomited blood, wishing he could tear Feng Hailong to pieces.
Feng Hailong cried, "I was blinded by greed and money, Feng, please spare my family."
"Let handle this, Wang Feng," Xiaoshan, fearing that Wang Feng wouldn’t be able to control himself and would kill Feng Hailong, interjected.
"Feng Hailong, you can still save your life, but tell how much of the company you now own," Xiaoshan demanded.
"Black Wolf holds a fifty percent stake, with Sister-in-law Yufeng owning twenty percent that’s left, and I have thirty percent," Feng Hailong said.
"Alright, draft a share transfer agreent right now and transfer all the shares you hold back to Liu Yufeng," Xiaoshan instructed.
Feng Hailong hesitated for a mont.
Xiaoshan sneered, "If you don’t want to transfer the shares, that’s fine, too. Then I’ll just leave you to Wang Feng."
Fear finally triumphed and Feng Hailong anxiously replied, "Alright, alright, I’ll draft the docunts imdiately."
Feng Hailong had a study next to his bedroom, which was fully equipped.
Soon, he printed a docunt on the computer and signed his na on it.
Xiaoshan then picked up his phone, turned on the recording function and said, "Now, repeat in detail how you hard Wang Feng’s family."
Feng Hailong was thoroughly frightened, especially with the ghost of Wang Feng lurking nearby, watching him.
He had no choice but to repeat everything about how he had hard Wang Feng’s family.
"Very well, if you behave yourself, you can still live. Otherwise, I can’t guarantee that Wang Feng won’t co after your whole family again," Xiaoshan said as he pocketed his phone.
Feng Hailong shivered, and Xiaoshan gave a few more instructions.
After that, he and Wang Feng left.
After leaving the villa, Wang Feng said resentfully, "to just let him off like that after he destroyed my family, settling for so shares, it just doesn’t satisfy ."
"Of course, it’s not over," Xiaoshan said indifferently, "Nevertheless, he still has his uses right now. Although Feng Hailong was the mastermind, it was Zhao Jun who actually took action, not to ntion he still holds half the shares. Don’t you want to take them back?"
"I certainly do, but Zhao Jun is not a simple man. He’s deeply entrenched in our Xinyuan County, with influence on both fronts. Moving against them won’t be that easy," Wang Feng remarked.
"It’s not about whether or not we can move against them. Do you think that after taking back the shares from Feng Hailong, he will just let things be? He will definitely warn Zhao Jun," Xiaoshan stated.
"Then why didn’t you let kill him just now? If I killed him, even the police wouldn’t be able to trace it back to ," Wang Feng argued.
"I deliberately left him alive," Xiaoshan responded, stopping under a big tree by the roadside and staring at the villa opposite, "This is what I call luring the snake out of its hole."
